At DMEI, vision research is the lens through which we see a brighter future. Over the past 50 years, our vision scientists have been on the leading edge of research to understand the causes of eye disease and use that knowledge to undertake novel approaches to treatment. As we honor this legacy, we remain focused on accelerating new breakthroughs in such areas as retinal degenerations, glaucoma, and infectious and inflammatory diseases of the eye using small molecules, antioxidants, stem cells, metabolic reprogramming, lipid nanotechnology, and other approaches.

Your generosity powers the cutting-edge research that will shape the future of vision for generations to come.

🗣️ Here’s what one grateful parent had to say:
“I took my son to see Dr. Patel, and he and his staff were wonderful and so professional. They were patient with my son and calmed my fears by answering all of my many questions. Dr. Patel was very quick to get back to me on the results of my son’s MRI, along with the 3 month follow up tests which allowed my family peace of mind. I highly recommend this wonderful doctor. The facility is beautiful, clean, and state of the art. It definitely instills confidence. Thanks!” ~ Gaea C.
